Dollars to donuts the personnel are required to wear masks in the building.
Why did they NOT know what they were doing LAST YEAR during the flu season?These people know what they’re doing.
CDC: ‘No Significant Reduction in Influenza Transmission with the Use of Face Masks’
DIARY / THE HEARTLAND INSTITUTE // Posted at 4:03 pm on September 14, 2020 by The Heartland Institute
Remember when U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Jerome Adams said, “You can increase your risk of getting [COVID-19] by wearing a mask if you are not a health care provider,” during the early days of the coronavirus pandemic?
During that same media appearance, Adams also said, “Folks who don’t know how to wear them properly tend to touch their faces a lot and actually can increase the spread of coronavirus.”
And then he said this, “There are things people can do to stay safe. There are things they shouldn’t be doing and one of the things they shouldn’t be doing in the general public is going out and buying masks.”
My how things have changed. In the span of a few months, the World Health Organization (WHO) and several prominent U.S. public health officialdoms now say masks are practically a necessity to stop the spread of COVID-19.
But, is this the case? Do masks actually deter the spread of coronavirus to the degree the so-called public health experts and politicians claim they do? Well, the answer to this significant question is much more muddled than most have come to believe.
For starters, WHO has historically (before the coronavirus pandemic) stated that masks do little, if anything, to stop the spread of viruses like COVID-19.
In fact, at the very outset of the pandemic, WHO released a report stating, “there is currently no evidence that wearing a mask (whether medical or other types) by healthy persons in the wider community setting, including universal community masking, can prevent them from infection with respiratory viruses, including COVID-19.” . . .
. . . When it comes to wearing masks and abiding by their own senseless rules, we can be sure that hypocrites like Pelosi are adhering to their “golden rule”: Do as I say, not as I do.
That alone should cause all Americans to take a second and think about what this is really all about: control and subservience.

President Donald Trump on Tuesday repeated that he did not want to issue a national mask mandate during the coronavirus pandemic.
“There is, by the way, a lot of people who don’t want to wear masks,” Trump said. “There are a lot of people that think the masks are not good.”
The president commented on masks after a voter from an ABC News town hall hosted by George Stephanopoulos asked him why he did not support a national mask mandate.
He recalled witnessing waiters serving at a restaurant touching their masks to adjust them and then touching the plates.
“The concept of a mask is good, but … you are constantly touching it, touching your face, touching plates,” he said. “There are people that don’t think masks are good.” . . .
